MICKEY ROURKE DOESN’T HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE GIRL AND HER DOG

Mickey Rourke can’t seem to decide if he’s more interested in the pretty woman he’s with or her adorable dog. Either way, he’s happy. If Mickey seems to be doing not much more than lounging in cafes and nightclubs lately, that perception is inaccurate. In fact, he does more than hang out – he’s got at least eight movies lined up or finished. “Iron Man 2” will probably give him a biggest payday but he’s also doing some independent features like the Indian gangster movie “Broken Horses.”

SUDDENLY, MICKEY ROURKE FELT DIMINUTIVE, AND HE DIDN’T LIKE IT

We sense that Mickey Rourke is feeling miniscule in this photo taken at a London club called Alto. Mickey arrived with this leggy blonde named Kristina around 1:30 and left two hours later. When they were walking out she tried to link arms with him but he resisted, petulantly saying that he didn’t want to be photographed that way. He walked off ahead of her. It’s amazing what a pair of seven inch platform heels will do to a man.

THE EXPENDABLES: TOO MUCH TESTOSTERONE?
Filed Under: Arnold Schwarzenegger > Dolph Lundgren > Jason Statham > Jet Li > Mickey Rourke > Sylvester Stallone > The Expendables
Sylvester Stallone is just finishing up his movie “The Expendables” which he wrote, directs, and stars in. (Consequently, you can expect many shots of his ripped torso.) Above, Mickey Rourke is tattooing Sly in a still from the movie. As we told you, the story is about a secret plot by several nations to overthrow a dangerous South American dictator. The best mercenaries from around the world are hired to do the deed and they are played by tough guys Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Jet Li, among others. Bruce Willis is also in the film and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is supposedly making a surprise appearance. It’s an 80’s style action extravaganza!

Mickey Rourke is still thinking about his deceased dog Loki. Not only does Mickey wear Loki’s photo around his neck, but now he has Loki’s name monogrammed on his dandyish velvet shoes. “The Wrestler” star is in London now and we’re guessing that’s where he got the custom made footwear.

Just when you start to think Mickey Rourke is beginning to look more normal – almost like his old self – he surprises you! He showed off considerable cleavage while hanging with his buddies at Cristoni Pizzeria in Beverly Hills. Actually, his pecs appear pumped to the max and we’re betting he’s taking some type of “supplements” with that Diet Coke.

MICKEY ROURKE SCORES WITH VICTORIA'S SECRET MODEL
Filed Under: Mickey Rourke > Models > Victoria's Secret
Mickey Rourke, 56, is in hog heaven sitting with a table full of models at Bijoux lounge in New York. But he only has eyes for ONE – Victoria’s Secret model Eugenie Volodina, 24, who did not resist his advances. They openly smooched and she didn’t seem to mind his crazy hair – puzzling white “highlights” – or are they extensions?

Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger costar in “The Informers” but they had no scenes together and haven’t seen each other since they filmed the erotic “91/2 Weeks” together 23 years ago. At that time Kim expressed how difficult it was doing love scenes with Mickey because he smelled like an ashtray, Not long ago, Mickey got a note from Kim (after all that time) praising his performance in “The Wrestler.” He said it brought tears to his eyes. So they had a nice red carpet reunion.

RUSSIANS CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF MICKEY ROURKE

We didn’t realize that Mickey Rourke is a huge star in Russia. The Russians LOVE his bad-boy, womanizing villainous image, and Mickey has started hanging out in Russian clubs and restaurants in LA where he gets loads of attention. For the past six months, Mickey has been studying Russian because he plays a Russian character in “Iron Man 2,” and now that he speaks the language, he’s even MORE popular. According to an insider, Russians treat Mickey “like Michael Jackson” – whatever that means.

STALLONE'S THE BOSS ON THE EXPENDABLES

Sylvester Stallone is all pumped up and ready to start filming “The Expendables” which he wrote, will star in, and direct. It’s about an international team of mercenaries whose secret mission is to assassinate an evil South American dictator. And what a cast: besides Stallone, there’s Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Eric Roberts, and possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger and 50 Cent. It sounds like those “Dirty Dozen”/”Magnificent Seven” movies from the 60’s.

MICKEY ROURKE AND HIS FASHION INSPIRATION
Filed Under: Mickey Rourke
Photo Credit: Splash News
Against all odds, Mickey Rourke’s idiosyncratic style managed to start a trend – specifically the necklace he wears featuring a framed photo of his deceased dog Loki. The necklace was created by another chihuahua owner, Betina Wassermann, and she sells her $30 jewelry at flea markets round New York. (If you don’t have a pet, you can get a picture of Charles Darwin or Jimi Hendrix instead.)Her business is up about a thousand percent since Mickey wore the necklace to the Oscars. Now we hear that Mickey also saved one of Loki’s toenail clippings and carries it around to feel connected to his best friend. Will that trend catch on?

LOKI WAS THERE WITH MICKEY IN SPIRIT

Mickey Rourke’s jewelry was the talk of the Independent Spirit Awards today. Around his neck he wore a tiny framed photo of his beloved Chihuahua Loki who passed away last week in his arms. Mickey credited Loki with getting him through the toughest times of his life. Hard times are apparently over, because Mickey took home the Best Actor award and “The Wrestler” was Best Film. We’re thrilled that Melissa Leo got Best Actress for “Frozen River.” Which you MUST see!

We told you Mickey Rourke was getting lucky with women again since The Wrestler was released and he took home all those awards. Now he says he’s got a girlfriend. All we know is that her name is Kiera, she’s cute, and she doesn’t mind kissing a guy who smokes.

This is how Mickey Rourke looked when he walked out of his ritzy Paris hotel and a female fan was SO enthralled at the sight of him that she lifted her top and flashed him right there on the sidewalk. Granted, he does look like a dandy, but that’s quite a response. Mickey was amused but he made no apparent effort to date her.

MICKEY- TAKE YOUR HAND OUT OF YOUR PANTS!

Mickey Rourke has developed the unfortunate habit of walking around with his hand stuck in his pants. No kidding, if he’s not carrying his dog, chances are his hand is in his pants. Is his belt too tight or does he have a bit of dyspepsia? It could be he’s totally unaware of it, but it looked particularly awkward at the SAG Awards on the red carpet chatting with Kate Winslet. (She pretended not to notice.) Hey Mickey, knock it off!

MARISA TOMEI: IS SHE ON GOOD TERMS WITH MICKEY ROURKE?

Marisa Tomei has a great vintage 50’s look for the inauguration celebration. Her costar in “The Wrestler” Mickey Rourke, has been praising his other costar Evan Rachel Wood to the skies (she played his daughter,) but he doesn’t talk a lot about Marisa, who was also excellent in the film. We wonder what went on between them.

GOLDEN GLOBE WINNER MICKEY ROURKE KNOWS WHO HIS REAL FRIENDS ARE

Best Actor Mickey Rourke really won us over at the Golden Globes when he thanked his dogs in his acceptance speech. He commented that “they were with him when no one else was” and made a sentimental reference to his present and past dogs. He looked like he had a tear in his eye and we suddenly wondered if his constant companion – his beloved 16 year old chihuahua Loki, was no longer alive. To our immense relief, we were told that Loki is doing fine. And SO is Mickey.

“The Wrestler” has really paid off for Mickey Rourke. Not only is he respected in Hollywood again, but girls are getting interested in him. He had a long dry spell when he ran out of money and acting jobs. This comeback put him back on the map socially ,and he has a hot young blond girlfriend in Miami to prove it. And he didn’t even have to wash his hair.

THE WRESTLER IS MICKEY ROURKE'S BIG COMEBACK

Mickey Rourke made a personal appearance after a screening of The Wrestler for SAG members in West Hollywood Saturday night. The movie, directed by Darran Aronofsky, was grueling and violent but brilliant. One of the most fascinating aspects of the film was the backstage camaraderie between the wrestlers. Onstage after the movie, Mickey revealed that he gained 30 pounds of muscle for the part (and he looks a lot better now without that weight.) Clad in sharkskin pants and jacket, Mickey captivated the audience with stories about making the movie such as the time Darren the director reminded Mickey about his sick dog Loki to make him more emotional in a sensitive scene. Fortunately,16 year old Loki recovered, and was in the audience.

Mickey Rourke is still in Rome, and although he’s dressing better than he does in the US (nice suit) – he slacked off on washing his hair. He’s leaving the fancy restaurant Cipriani, and perhaps as a joke, he’s holding hands with his perplexed bodyguard.

Mickey Rourke is shopping in Rome, looking TONS better than the last time we saw him. (He bought some Italian shoes.) Maybe he had a makeover because his movie “The Wrestler” is getting him so much favorable attention. He’s in town for the Rome Film Festival and his constant companion is Loki, his tiny pup.
